FRP?

As for motor limit, same as everyone else mate. 300-330rwkw depending on condition.

opps soz i meant fuel pressure regulator.

Motor condition is good. When i got the car its done 60k and its dead stock. Not even an exhaust system.

im thinking lon term too. If holden decides to put out a smoking HSV with 400kw we can let the HSV smoke me right? So get the biggest injectors and when i want to use its there dont need to waste 2x the $$

its called power to weight ratio mate... sure the HSV has 400kw(thats at the fly)... and your car makes 320 (At the wheels!!) your car still weighs alot less!! and you got AWD.

if any HSV beats you, you should be ashamed haha.

bigger isn't better. buy something appropriately sized. ie. listen to what you are being told by those that KNOW what they are talking about.

800cc is good for 800hp @ the flywheel. when you rebuild your engine to cope, a new set of injectors will be the least of your worries.

OK i will settel for a smaller injectors. A 555cc is enough? What capacity are the 555cc injectors working at if im pumping out say 320kw@wheels which is roughly 390kw@craml? I never like to max out a capacity of an equipment. I like to leave it at 80% capacity instead of having to work out max.

But i think now i will go for the 2860R -5. Should this be sufficient to make 320kw@wheels? And will the 555cc injectors match the turbos?

Im also confused between the terms GTSS and 2860R-5. Im presuming that the power output is fairly similar? And "GTSS" is just a garret turbo market. The euilvalent to the "GTSS" is the 2860R -5? Theres about A$800 difference between the 2turbos. Is it worth it to buy the Hks "GTSS"? Or just get the 2860R -5? Thanks guys for the input. What would i do without you guys.

800cc = 800hp?? damn how incorrect is that...

standard GTR injectors r what... 444cc?? so it has a max output of 444hp @ fly? lol ok champ no worries

sit down b4 u hurt urself :glare:

yeah chuckles that's right allowing about 85% duty cycle at standard rail pressure.

are you saying higher or lower?

Edited by wolverine

im sayin higher.. but its also dependant on the engine type and tuning.

My car atm is makin around 390hp @ 4 wheels... which is higher than 444hp @ fly.. MUCH higher.. drive train loss will be atleast 100hp on a conservative 25% loss.. it will be higher, but say its not. that puts the injectors @ 490hp flow and theyre not @ 85% yet. i think they were sittin @ 80? cant remember too well but it wasnt that high. I thikn i can get another 40hpish outta the injectors b4 i start runnin into duty cycle problems.

But depends on engine.. my last car was an rx7. i ran 4x 1600cc injectors.. ill be damnd if they could supply enough fuel for 1600hp lol... i think that one was makin around 700hp @ fly with injectors @ around 90% :glare:

as for losing 70kw over a 4wd system which using hydraulics to transfer torque to the front.. ur dreamin buddy.. 320 @ wheels is well over 450kw @ crank

Yeah, but then you'd need to change turbo's, build a motor, etc etc. So basically another 15k :yes:

So if you dont really plan on that then 550's will be ample for the task at hand.

800cc = 800hp?? damn how incorrect is that...

Not incorrect at all, read the next section of this post.

You dont get 25% drivetrain loss, what are you on about mate?

I think someone has been feeding you some wrong information.

320rwkw is NOT 'well over' 450kw @ the crank. Not even close, your honestly beyond wrong on that.

Its probably closer to 380-390kw @ the crank or there abouts.

In a 6 cylinder motor, its pretty basic for injectors. 550cc = 550hp for the sake of the point.

Yes its not an "exact" calculation, but its near enough for what we need to discuss.

Obviously you can 'squeeze' more out of the injectors if you bump the rail pressure, but im keeping it simple as there isn't a need for that detail here.

Im also confused between the terms GTSS and 2860R-5. Im presuming that the power output is fairly similar? And "GTSS" is just a garret turbo market. The euilvalent to the "GTSS" is the 2860R -5? Theres about A$800 difference between the 2turbos. Is it worth it to buy the Hks "GTSS"? Or just get the 2860R -5? Thanks guys for the input. What would i do without you guys.

Garretts come with just the turbos.

HKS come in a kit with all the parts.

By the time you purchase all the things like gaskets, washers and so on.

The actual difference in price is only as few hundred as GT-SS for the RB26 are cheap due to the good Yen price at the moment.

So its upto you for that as the price really isnt that much different. Maybe $400 at the end of the day (rough stab)

25% incorrect? ROFL ok champ :glare:

a RWD car loses between 20-30% power through the drivetrain and axles from the crank.. from crank it goes into flywheel, clutch, gears, tail shaft, diff then axles

the industry NORM is 20-30%

Thats RWD

a AWD loses a shitload more then that. Its not wrong info. its facts. a 300kw rwd car makes about 210-220rwkw. Thats a lose of roughly 80kw. And thats from going from engine dyno.. to a chassis dyno. thats higher than 20%

a FWD car which makes roughyl 140kw @ crank, makes roughly 100-105kw @ wheels.. thats more than 20%

If u think the losses on an AWD car which uses a pump thats virtually the same as an automatic torque converter loses LESS.. ur a dreamer in ur own right.

How about then you go do some testing please?

GTR RWD to AWD - minimal difference in power loss, and its been seen time and time again by people who drop the front shaft. Do a few runs, then put the shaft back in and do a few runs.

I realise you semi-new here so you've probably missed the dozen threads on it.

ATTESSA doesn't transfer power if it has traction at the rear. Do you not even understand how the car works or what?

To say 320rwkw is MUCH MORE than 450kw @ the fly is wrong. That makes it at over 600hp, and that's rubbish.

it wasnt supposed to be 320rwkw... it was meant to be 320awkw.. and u dont lose much power goin from rwd to awd?

so why is it.. i cant crack 300kw in awd.. but in rwd i can easily crack 300kw? not much difference?? no worries CHAMP

im a mechanic and i know exactly how the transfer case works on the GTR and any other car on this planet, given that i have seen it. :glare:

on a DYNO the GTR will put power to the front hweels because.. it "slips" the rears.. on a dyno.. the rears move and the fronts dont.. the comp see's loss of traction and engages the front.

sorry dude.. but i seen the dyno figures over and over and over again and i cbf arguing with u or u internet buddies.

u will always lose power going from rwd/fwd to awd

So where did the 600hp+ argument go all of a sudden, no mention of it in your post? (conveniently)

After all, that is the main issue here that you think 320kw @ the wheels is well over 600hp @ the fly.

Anyway, back on topic......

With advances in turbo technology the makers have also moved toward a longer life bearing, that of the ball bearing. While there may be some evidence that a BB will spool faster, I consider that is due to the improved geometry in the modern turbos running BB. I'm yet to see any real testing that proves that exactly the same turbos except with journal or BB would be very different. In fact, the journal, running perfectly is only riding on a film of oil, while a BB has to also accelerate the bearings at a greater radius, and so would by every engineering principle be slower to spool if everything else was equal.

Given that cheaper highflows aren't as economical as they used to be when Slide did them I would Highly recommend the GTSS or 2860 setup.

Also common practice is to assume between 25-30% losses through drivetrain and tyres on a dyno unless it is a direct connection to the hubs, such as Dynapack.

No sense arguing with Ash, he only repeats what others say, although he is an authority on prices, especially for others doing the work, so worth listening there.

But depends on engine.. my last car was an rx7. i ran 4x 1600cc injectors.. ill be damnd if they could supply enough fuel for 1600hp lol.
and
im a mechanic

as a mechanic you should know better that the number of cylinders is an important difference when talking about injectors (and rail pressure).

back on topic, 800cc injectors are overkill for this application and smaller injectors should be a better choice. i'm sure bumblebee can help get the correct size for you.

    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
